For what it's worth Eibach makes a quality product. I've used their products on several VW's and other compact cars I've owned through the years. They make reliable products needless to say.

I sent an email and this is what they said

Edward,

Greetings, this is Charlie from STILLEN. Thank you for your email and inquiry on Belltech Suspension.



Unfortunately, for your 2005 AWD Expedition, a 2WD suspension will not work. Even though you don’t use the 4WD you still have 4WD suspension.



Belltech only makes a Lowering kit for a 2WD Expedition.



I have a 2”x2” drop available from Ground Force, which is another Top Quality Suspension Company, but it will only work on NON-AIR Ride Trucks.



So if you do not have the rear Leveling system or rear Air Bags I would have a lowering kit available, and unfortunately if you do have the Leveling System or rear Air Bags I would not have a lowering kit available.



If you could please verify the rear setup of your Expedition, I can get you more details on a lowering kit.
navigators are the only ones with the bags rights ?

definitely not vertical bar grille

450 isnt bad, how much would shocks/struts run you?
